That this House regrets that the Government has indicated its support for the expansion of Heathrow airport; highlights that Heathrow is the single largest polluter in the UK and that its emissions account for over half of all UK aviation emissions; further highlights that the addition of a third runway contradicts the Government’s stated net zero targets; believes that economic growth should be balanced by environmental and health considerations; and urges the Government to reject proposals for a third runway at Heathrow.
